Lua "..." args

[Steve Dekorte <steve@...>]

A minor feature request.

It would be nice if, when I have a method using variable args, I
could pass those args along to another function with the "..." syntax.
Example:

function SomeObject:myMethod(blah, ...)
  return anotherObject:anotherMethod(...)
end

Instead of the uglier and more limited way:

function SomeObject:myMethod(blah, ...)
    local argCount = tableLength(arg)

    if ( argCount == 0 ) then
	return anotherObject:anotherMethod(forwardMethod)
    end
    if ( argCount == 1 ) then
	return anotherObject:anotherMethod(forwardMethod, arg[1])
    end
    if ( argCount == 2 ) then
	return anotherObject:anotherMethod(forwardMethod, arg[1], arg[2])
    end
    if ( argCount == 3 ) then
	return anotherObject:anotherMethod(forwardMethod, arg[1], arg[2], arg[3])
    end
end
